Can't a girl be a traitor like Cao Cao?

At this moment, Duan Shanji knelt down on one knee, his broken sword stuck in front of him to support his body.

Then, he vomited a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, Chi Junlin slowly opened his eyes.

This sword strike, seemingly missing its mark, used its fierce momentum to make the broken mountain ridge clearly feel the fact that it had been "cut."

It can be said that it can break through anything.

Chi Junlin vaguely sensed that after this sword strike, he had grasped a higher level of sword intent.

It means having no sword in hand, but having a sword in one's heart.

Chapter 356 Escaping the Demon's Den

This sword strike seemed to wipe out all the misfortunes that Chi Junlin had encountered in the Underworld during this period.

It seemed that after that one sword strike, nothing in the world could stop him anymore.

The Red King had an epiphany upon his arrival.

At this moment, I feel I vaguely understand why people's pursuit of the way of the sword is far superior to that of other weapons.

At least Red King, in his mastery of the gun, could not appreciate such subtle emotions.

However, before she could fully savor this strange and mysterious feeling...

Then another thunderous roar came from the side.

"Sangpo! It really was you! It really was you!"

Lu Yuanlong, his face full of indignation, stepped forward and, without saying a word, grabbed him by the neck and pulled him in front of him.

Then, in a fit of rage, he roared, "Aren't you dead? You clearly died right before my eyes!"

But why... why did you reappear!

And he even joined the Demonic Sect! Why did all this happen?!

Lu Yuanlong was somewhat hysterical, but Chi Junlin could understand his emotions at this moment.

Because everyone understands very well that Lu Yuanlong came to Yindu to avenge his close friend Sang Po!

That's why he was imprisoned in the Ghost Abyss Dungeon and tortured by the people of the Demonic Sect for so long.

Perhaps, looking back, the reason why Lu Yuanlong remained unyielding in the Ghost Abyss dungeon, yet was not killed by Zizaitian, was because of Sang Po's existence.

But then I thought, did Lu Yuanlong deserve all the torment he has suffered so far?

How should we explain Sangpo?

How should he deal with Lu Yuanlong's anger?

At this moment, the swordsman who broke the mountain ridge, or perhaps he should be called the sword madman Sangpo—

He coughed up a mouthful of blood and said to Lu Yuanlong, "I'm sorry... I have no regrets about dying at your hands... Do it."

Upon hearing this, Lu Yuanlong became even more enraged. He grabbed Sang Po by the neck, raised one hand, and was about to kill him.

But I just gritted my teeth and couldn't bring myself to do it.

Because what he wanted was not Sangpo's death.

It's the truth!

The truth behind Lu Yuanlong's years of struggle in the Ghost Abyss dungeon and his willingness to die for him!

But Sangpo remained completely silent.

He remained silent throughout.

As Lu Yuanlong looked at the unfamiliar yet familiar figure before him, his former best friend, his heart gradually turned cold.

He gritted his teeth and released Sangpo.

Then he raised his strong arm, ripped his clothes in front of him, and threw them in front of Sang Po.

“Sangpo, from this day forward, I sever all ties with you!”

"Lu Yuanlong, I owe you Sangpo nothing more!"

Upon hearing Lu Yuanlong's words, Sang Po showed a hint of melancholy.

He seemed to be in some pain.

But then, a heavy and solemn expression appeared in his eyes.

On the other side, after the Crimson King broke through the narrow cave passage guarded by Sangpo, no one was able to protect the child and the piper on the obsidian altar.

Left with no other choice, the piper played a flute tune with a strange and exotic flavor.

The demonic chants spurred the children on the periphery to their feet. With bewildered expressions, they used their bodies to block the crowd, buying him a final moment.

But how weak are the strength of children.

The righteous people quickly rescued the child and flew towards the high platform, ready to make the culprit who manipulated the child pay the price.

The piper was desperate and had nowhere to turn, so he used the children around him as a shield, hoping to use them as a last resort.

But there was nowhere to go, and nowhere to escape to. When things came to a head, where could he run to?

In the midst of the stalemate, the piper turned and reached out toward the center of the altar, seemingly wanting to take away the remains and bones in the formation.

But the instant he reached out, a cold light flashed.

The broken sword had pierced his chest in an instant, leaving a hole in his chest.

At this moment, Chi Junlin made a ruthless move, killing the heinous piper from a distance.

Even in his last moments, the piper struggled to reach out to the skeleton.

"The picture...my picture..."

Having said that, he breathed his last and died.

Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Sangpo and his righteous followers began to frantically rescue the children, carrying them on their backs and leading them out of the cave.

He sighed, realizing he hadn't done what he was supposed to do.

However, at this moment, there was no regret or fear on his face.

It seems that joining the Demonic Sect was indeed his own choice.

Just as Chi Junlin was about to ask him a question, he saw the man look at Chi Junlin and say something.

"We must go and save her."

Chi Junlin was somewhat puzzled and asked, "Who?"

"Ye Qiancao".

Chi Junlin was stunned, wondering why Sang Po would give him such a message.

But then he saw Sang Po raise his sword without hesitation.

Then the blade sliced ​​across his neck.

The blade was as sharp as grass, and heads fell to the ground.

Chi Junlin and Lu Yuanlong both showed surprised expressions when they saw this scene.

Unexpectedly, Sangpo would so cleanly and decisively decapitate himself.

Without the slightest hesitation.

Now it seems that he didn't choose to join the demonic sect out of fear of death.

So why did he, a master swordsman, stay in Yindu and adopt the alias Broken Ridge, always obeying the orders of the Demonic Sect?

Red King didn't have much time to think about these things.

Because what's more urgent right now is the need to rescue a group of children.

Fortunately, after the piper on the altar was killed, many children gradually woke up.

They looked around blankly, seemingly not understanding why they had woken up to find themselves there.

The righteous people didn't have time to explain further; they simply told the children to get up and escape with them.

As for the children who were too weak to move, the strong and healthy men would carry two or three of them out of the cave.

In this way, the group quickly carried the children from the underground cave to the outside of the Demon Palace through hurried rescues.

Fortunately, the process did not take too long, and the disciples of the Joyful Sect seemed to have been terrified by Lu Yuanlong and his men's ferocious massacre.

Once outside, they found no signs of any encirclement set up by the Demonic Sect.

In this way, they could safely escape from the underworld with the children.

Chi Junlin was thinking about how to arrange the evacuation route.

Unexpectedly, Feng Lingqiu suddenly appeared in front of Chi Junlin.

Seeing the other person swaying and appearing somewhat weak, Chi Junlin frowned and asked, "Can't hold on anymore?"

Feng Lingqiu shook his head, but picked up a package and handed it to Chi Junlin.

Chi Junlin took it, opened it, and found that it was the skeleton that had appeared on the altar earlier.

Feng Lingqiu then said, "I saw that the flute player was thinking about this item even before he died, so it must be an extremely valuable treasure within the Demonic Sect. That's why I got it for you."

Chi Junlin nodded.

Then, a thought crossed my mind.

He then came up with a way to get everyone out of the underworld safely.

Chapter 357: Leaving the pavilion and entering the curtain, dual cultivation of holy sacrifices

Not long after, outside the Saintess Pavilion.

Inside the Tongtian Pavilion.

Located at the highest point within the city of Yindu, this place, like the Saintess Pavilion, is the highest building in Yindu.

Originally the meeting place where the Demon Lord of the Demon Sect summoned his disciples and sect leaders, the place became more symbolic than practical after the Demon Lord Lan Gexing's three beloved disciples were betrayed and killed.

With the death of Lan Gexing, the three major demons had already broken ties on the surface.

Therefore, Tongtian Pavilion has not been used for several years now.

If it weren't for the Holy Maiden's return and the Demonic Sect's urgent matters, the Tongtian Pavilion would probably never have been reactivated.

Meanwhile, inside the Tongtian Pavilion, the Demonic Sect members were numerous, and the place was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, creating a festive atmosphere.

It seems everyone is celebrating something.

However, those who knew a little about the inside story couldn't laugh at this moment.

Not only because not long ago, righteous spies entered the Underworld, causing unrest in various parts of the Underworld.

Needless to say, the chaotic battle at Xunhuan Cave was followed by the raid on Guiyuan Dungeon.

The Earth Palace was almost completely burned to the ground.

After that, a large number of caravans and horses of the Corpse Driving Sect were stolen by a fake elder. The Yindu disciples were unable to catch up and were intercepted and killed by a woman in white. Several elders on the Hundred Ghosts List died in the battle.

The woman in white who intercepted the elder of the Demonic Sect was suspected to be Lin Jun, a disciple of Tong Yan, the leader of the Southern Martial Arts Alliance.

This further confirms the news that the Southern Righteous Path is about to launch a major offensive against Yindu in western Hunan.

How could the demonic disciples in the Underworld possibly laugh upon hearing such news?

Although the Joyful Sect undoubtedly suffered the most severe damage in this riot, Yindu is also a place for other demonic sects and younger disciples to recuperate and rebuild their lives.

If all Yin is destroyed, where in this vast world can they find refuge?

Those who are able to come to Tongtian Pavilion at this time and are qualified to sit in the main hall are all prominent figures in the Demonic Sect.

Apart from the inner elders of the three major demonic sects, only those demons from other minor sects who are listed on the Hundred Ghosts Ranking are qualified to sit in the hall.

The remaining disciples, who were slightly less senior, could only stand behind the elders and become the background figures in the pavilion.

The outer sect elders or other direct disciples who were further back in the row could only wait outside the pavilion.

Since everyone in the Tongtian Pavilion was well-informed and knew the current state of the Demonic Sect, the elders gathered there appeared somewhat worried.

The reason they gathered here was because the Demonic Sect was about to face another major event.
